A torn labrum derailed what should have been a promising junior season for Putnam City baseball player Brian Brightwell.

But an impressive summer put Brightwell back in the spotlight, culminating with Brightwell committing to Oklahoma this weekend.

“Brian can hit. He can hit with anybody,” Putnam City coach Jim Drummond said. “He’s a real coachable kid.”

Brightwell hit .389 as a sophomore. And despite not playing half of last season, still managed to bat .350.
